ASTERS 
Plant these brilliant fall-blooming hardy Asters and 
prolong your blooming season a full month. Have your 
garden a place of dazzling splendor when all about is 
brown and sere. They will bring a world of color dur- 
ing late September, all of October, and on into No¬ 
vember until heavy freezing kills the flowers. These 
plants stand our Minnesota winters unprotected. 
These late blooming Asters should be in every garden 
as they give a mass of color after all other flowers are 
gone except the hardy outdoor Chrysanthemums. 
There has been a wonderful improvement in these 
fall Asters of late years just as with many other flowers. 
As new varieties come that are better than the older 
sorts, we test them out and offer our customers a con¬ 
stantly improving assortment. We want everyone who 
does not have them to try out one or more kinds this 
fall. Be sure to plant well and mulch the first winter.

der flowers with a very bright pink reflection. One of the best of the

CHARLES WILSON. (New 1937). Here is the new Aster wonder for 
1937. An entirely different shade of red from Red Rover. Where that

the purple eliminated. An intense brilliant red such as can be found 
in no other Aster. Truly a wonderful acquisition to our growing list 
of indispensable Asters. Each, 75c; 3 for $2.00; 6 for $3.50

RED ROVER. New novelty. One of the sensations of our garden last fall. We had a 
row of this wonderful Aster last October about 100 feet in length and when in bloom 
this was a sight to behold. The entire row was one solid mass of color so bright that 
it arrested every eye. A rich deep red-purple. Our first good red Aster.

■Aauileala 
The Aquilegia or Columbine are among the most elegant 
of the hardy perennial plants. They do fine in full sun but 
are best suited to semi-shady locations. They are most 
commonly used in the long-spurred mixtures which cover 
a wide range of soft, delicate, distinct shades. Desirable planted in the long-spurred 
sorts where the separate colors are used to work out required color effects. 
MRS. SCOTT ELLIOTT (Long-Spurred Hybrids ). One of the best known and most 
select of all the strains of Columbines. Very carefully selected for clear, even, soft 
color tones combined with very long, graceful spurs. A wonderful, choice strain. 
DOBBIE'S IMPERIAL HYBRIDS (Long-Spurred ). A wonderful mixture in the most 
beautiful colors. Contains every shade imaginable. In England they are considered 
the best mixture offered today. Great wide throated bells and many deep rich shades 
not found in other strains. 
Heavy, field-grown plants, 35c each; 5 for $1.00; $2.25 per doz. Special offer of 10 
select medium size plants, $1.00.
